Economics what does this decision 23 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,600 Speaker 1: say to, You, well it says a. 24 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:27,400 Speaker 3: Lot this is this is going to be a landmark. 25 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 3: Decision it's going to go down in. History it's going 26 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,400 Speaker 3: to be taught in law schools for a long. Time 27 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,680 Speaker 3: And i'll focus on just the economic. Aspects they say 28 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 3: it right out of the, gate they say tariffs are. 29 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:40,839 Speaker 3: TAXES i know this will be a shock to everyone 30 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:42,240 Speaker 3: in the, world but you AND i have been saying this. 31 00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:45,199 Speaker 3: Forever they say, It they just, okay terarifts are. Taxes 32 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:48,320 Speaker 3: then it goes on to Say article one Gives congress 33 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 3: the power to levy. Taxes. Surprise so right out of the, 34 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 3: gate this thing is very. Clear and then it gets 35 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 3: into some very important issues such as you, know this 36 00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 3: is not a teriff, statute again emphasizing the point that 37 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:05,480 Speaker 3: you AND i keep saying that terroriffs are taxes and 38 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:07,880 Speaker 3: the president doesn't have the power to impose. Taxes and 39 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 3: one THING i really love about. It it says tariffs 40 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:15,399 Speaker 3: are a tax on THE us, citizen, again something that's 41 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 3: obvious to all of. Us and they say the president 42 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:21,720 Speaker 3: doesn't have the authority to impose taxes on us without congressional, 43 00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 3: approval that it's Only. Congress but what it does say 44 00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 3: is that the IE pa it allows, regulation and the 45 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 3: president can regulate, things so he can block Import it's 46 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:35,519 Speaker 3: clear on this he can, Say i'm, Sorry, taiwan you 47 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,360 Speaker 3: cannot send something to THE. Us i'm, Sorry, japan you 48 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:42,120 Speaker 3: cannot export this to THE. Us he can block, imports 49 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,640 Speaker 3: but he can't TAX US us citizens on those. Goods 50 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 3: and that's the economic, angle AND i think they made 51 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 3: the right. Decision SO i. 52 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 1: Will counter only by saying THAT i think the tariffs are. 53 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 1: TAXES i state that tariffs are. Taxes but with THE, 54 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 1: ieepa the converse, is how is it, Possible and this 55 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 1: is The kavanaugh, descent how is it possible THAT i. 56 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:07,919 Speaker 2: Can REGULATE i could literally stop. 57 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,520 Speaker 1: Goods from coming into a, country BUT i can't tariff. 58 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:13,600 Speaker 1: THEM i would consider a tariff in that, case, regulating 59 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 1: AND i would still be able to hold that a 60 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 1: tariff is a. Tax now this doesn't, mean of, course 61 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 1: that the president can't engage tariffs through other. 62 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:28,080 Speaker 2: MEANS i believe that he, will or at least he will. 63 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,799 Speaker 1: Try but there's an argument to be made of, maybe, 64 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 1: HEY i gave it the. Shot they said, no and 65 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 1: there's something better that comes from, this the, tariffs let's 66 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: say fall, away maybe. Money the, money of COURSE i 67 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 1: shouldn't say maybe it is going to have to get 68 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 1: paid back some one hundred and seventy billion dollars whatever it. 69 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 1: IS i don't know how that part actually. Works what 70 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:52,120 Speaker 1: is going to be the market's response to these tariffs 71 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 1: being now basically? 72 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 3: Nullified, well, okay long, term the market's going to like. 73 00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 3: This this is good because we don't like this. Axes 74 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 3: nobody wants more, taxes well except for the. Left but 75 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 3: in the short, term it's going to be a. Negative 76 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 3: even Though i'm against, tariffs it's a negative because we 77 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 3: just took a tool of bargaining chip away from the. 78 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 3: President so he's going to have to use another bargaining, 79 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 3: tool another chip to put on the. Table and are 80 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 3: all these deals that he did are they now null and? 81 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 3: Void he just signed one yesterday With? Indonesia is that 82 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 3: null and? Void because those things do include? Tariffs do 83 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 3: they have to be approved by The? Senate because again 84 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:34,479 Speaker 3: their trade agreements now and those things the president can't do. 85 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 3: Unilaterally he has to get the approval of The. Senate 86 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 3: SO i think long. Term Wall street's going to be 87 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 3: happy with. Us but right now there's some, chaos and you, 88 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 3: KNOW i guess that's the definition of The trump presidency 89 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:47,479 Speaker 3: is throw some chaos out there and see what. 90 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 1: Happened talking to, you Doctor Matt, will economist at The 91 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 1: university Of. 92 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 2: Indianapolis now let's move it over. 93 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 1: To THIS gdp one point four, percent and you, ALSO 94 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,600 Speaker 1: i have a conversation of inflation firming. 95 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 2: Up they're saying a three. 96 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 1: Percent The fed is, very very concerned about cutting. 97 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 2: Rates they absolutely don't want to do. 98 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 1: This this is Going i'm going to be yet another 99 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:16,919 Speaker 1: fight that's going to take place Before Jerome powell is. 100 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 1: Replaced but let's talk about this one point four PERCENT. 101 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:22,360 Speaker 1: Gdp in the fourth, quarter it was a two and 102 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 1: a half percent. Estimate that's a miss by basically a full. 103 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: Percent what the heck happened? 104 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,599 Speaker 3: Here, okay there's a lot of parts to, this AND 105 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 3: i want us to cover all of them because it's. 106 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 3: Important but let me say the. Headline it's not as 107 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 3: bad as the president. Thinks The president went right out 108 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 3: of the gating and he attacked The democrats for the. 109 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,680 Speaker 3: Shutdown he attacked Jer Own poal for not cutting. Rates 110 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 3: and you know, WHAT i understand him on both of those, 111 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,600 Speaker 3: points but it's not as bad as he. Thinks and 112 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 3: you got to look under the. Hood you AND i 113 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:54,480 Speaker 3: always do, this and let's look under the. Hood first of, 114 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:57,919 Speaker 3: all there is a one percent reduction IN gdp because 115 00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 3: of the government, Shutdown so right out of the, gate 116 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,280 Speaker 3: there's a one percent off number that we need to 117 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 3: take into. Account but there's some really good stuff in this. Report, 118 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:11,040 Speaker 3: okay first good. Thing consumer spending is up two and 119 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,960 Speaker 3: a half, percent two point Four that is an excellent. 120 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 3: Number probably my favorite number in this well maybe it's 121 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:22,839 Speaker 3: my second. Favorite is domestic. Investment people putting shovel in the, 122 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:26,920 Speaker 3: ground putting up, buildings building their businesses up three point eight. 123 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 3: Percent that's a very good. Number but there's two. Drags 124 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 3: there's two things that are pulling it, down AND i 125 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:37,719 Speaker 3: think they're good. Things one is the government shrink by 126 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:42,480 Speaker 3: five point one. Percent remember we talked About BIDEN'S gdp 127 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 3: was up because he was growing. Government THIS gdp is 128 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 3: down because government shrank five point one. Percent this is a. 129 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:54,279 Speaker 3: Flaw it's a flaw with this Ridiculous knesy AND gdp 130 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 3: formula in that the growth of government contributes to THE gdp. 131 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,360 Speaker 3: Number so IF i Were trump might, say, hey, yeah 132 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 3: one point, four but come, on we shrun. Government that's 133 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 3: a good. Thing private industry is, growing consumer spending is. Up, 134 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 3: okay government's. Down that's perfectly. Fine but there's also an 135 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 3: import export angle on this that relates back to The 136 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 3: Supreme court. DECISION i thought they could be breath first 137 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 3: BECAUSE i actually were a lot at you just, Then. 138 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: Yeah the idea that the shutdown is CAUSING gdp to go? 139 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 2: Down what's? Shutdown are referring to that The. 140 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:33,240 Speaker 1: Homeland security shutdown that's been going on for just about a. 141 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 1: Week are we talking about the shutdown From October? November that's, 142 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 1: well we'll talking fourth, quarter so of course you're talking 143 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 1: about the shutdown From october And. 144 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 2: NOVEMBER i thought these were. 145 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:47,040 Speaker 1: Good things because it reduces government. Payrolls now you're telling 146 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 1: me that that also leads to a SMALLER. 147 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 3: Gdp, yes because remember we're not traveling as. Much you, 148 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 3: know The Homeland security had. Issues flights were, canceled a rail, 149 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 3: issue who's. Occurred people at the docks couldn't get goods, 150 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 3: off you, know boats In Long beach and in they 151 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 3: Own New. Jersey so, no there's a lot of these 152 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 3: things that government does that you AND i, like you, 153 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 3: know national. Defense, okay those things are. Good they contribute 154 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,560 Speaker 3: to the activity of the, country even if it's not 155 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:23,080 Speaker 3: government spending that's causing. It so the government infrastructure that 156 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 3: shut down cause all of the, economy private economy to pull. 157 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 3: Back and that's where we get the one percent. From 158 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,720 Speaker 3: and that's kind of the consensus estimate from economists across the. 159 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 1: Board President trump putting out on a truth Social The 160 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 1: democrats shutdown costs THE usa at least two points IN. 161 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 1: Gdp that's why they're doing it in many form again 162 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 1: talking about this latest. 163 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 2: Shutdown no shutdowns also lower interest. Rates too. Late powell 164 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 2: is the. Worst yet he hasn't fired. 165 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 1: Too Late, powell AS i, said THE fed seems very 166 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 1: very concerned about. Inflation they're saying three percent and There's 167 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:03,560 Speaker 1: i'm saying they're they're hinting that there won't be another rate. 168 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 2: Cut you cutting? Rates? 169 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 3: Good, well, okay, again let's let's let's put aside the 170 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 3: wash combo decision of rate cuts and balance. Sheet but 171 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 3: this report indicates. Inflation they have their own numbers called 172 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:20,720 Speaker 3: the gd price. Deflator it's an indication of inflation that's 173 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,560 Speaker 3: built into THE gdp. Report it was three point seven. 174 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:27,760 Speaker 3: Percent that's not an annualized. Number it was actually by their, 175 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 3: definition not the matt. Willmath by their definition in this, 176 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 3: report three point seven percent inflation for the third court 177 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:39,679 Speaker 3: or for the fourth. Quarter that is. Real and that 178 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:41,960 Speaker 3: also was a drag ON gdp because you, know we 179 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 3: call it NOMINAL gdp versus REAL. Gdp it's adjusted for, 180 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 3: inflation and the inflation was three point seven. Percent it 181 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 3: is not. Gone and to cut rates right now without 182 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 3: a setting of the balance sheet would even contribute more to. 183 00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:59,079 Speaker 3: Inflation so the president's wrong to be pulling the finger 184 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 3: at your own paler on this that that's NOT i 185 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:01,960 Speaker 3: don't agree. 186 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 1: With, him but you do agree that the shutdown Of 187 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 1: October november led to a LOWER gdp. 188 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 3: Overall, yes it led to a LOWER, gdp AND i 189 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 3: believe the one percent. Estimate you, know the president likes 190 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 3: to use. Hyperbole but, again the shutdown also reduced the 191 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 3: size of, government which also REDUCED. Gdp but there's a 192 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 3: very interesting part of this report import, export because again 193 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 3: this is a flaw with THE gdp it doesn't consider 194 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 3: foreign direct. Investment so we had fewer exports last quarter 195 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,959 Speaker 3: and more. Imports that's a drag ON gdp because it's 196 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,440 Speaker 3: a flaw in THE gdp. FORMULA i want a lot of. 197 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:49,439 Speaker 3: IMPORTS i want to buy cheap stuff From germany and 198 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 3: From switzerland and from THE. Uk but that's a drag 199 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 3: ON gdp and his. Tariffs we've said it a million 200 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,440 Speaker 3: times And I'm i'm not going to stop saying. It 201 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 3: his tariffs actually harm manufacturing and exports and. IMPORTS i 202 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:04,439 Speaker 3: give you The whirlpool, EXAMPLE i give you The intel. 203 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 3: Example whenever you put protectionist tariffs in, place it only 204 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 3: protects your industry short. Term long, term it hurts your. 205 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:15,439 Speaker 3: Industry and that's what we see in THIS. Gdp The 206 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:17,680 Speaker 3: april tariffs hurt the fourth QUARTER. 207 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:21,400 Speaker 1: Gdp, hey you, know sometimes the gift comes in all 208 00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 1: sorts of. Ways if the tariffs are, gone your argument 209 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 1: would be. High my, argument we're going to see some 210 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 1: very good growth that could take, place but really quick 211 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 1: on this trade. Deficit because The Wall Street journal had 212 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 1: the Story america imported a record amount last year despite 213 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 1: seismic trade policy. Changes you saw seventy point three billion 214 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 1: DOLLARS us trade deficit goods and services. Monthly and what 215 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 1: you're saying is that even with the tariffs and this 216 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 1: claim that we were going to close trade, gaps that's 217 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 1: not the way it. Works the trade gap is as 218 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 1: big as. 219 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 3: Ever, yes this is not news liberal, economists conservative, Economists 220 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 3: it doesn't. Matter trade tariffs do not reduce your trade. 221 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 3: Deficit The president has this false impression in his mind 222 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 3: and he can't get rid of. It and The Wall 223 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 3: street journal is reporting exactly the.
